Dear Lady, Thy epistle’s dost create In this Errant Knights heart A sweet and tender ache, Of want of ours to meet. For thou to peer unto mine heart And therein see the hunger, A longing for touch of thine hand On which I would live forever. For thee to see with mine eyes The beauty ye would parade afore me, Eyes that hath seen many a sunrise Yet they all pale afore ye. T’is these thoughts And many more That this Errant Knight in his quest As yet but half complete Causes him to hasten forth For his beloved to meet. And if on thine Errant Knights arrival You should give him entrance at the door He shall come in, and go out never more. Yours always Errant Knight |

The call of such a noble man would stir the droplets in a crystal pool to rain, pouring heart and soul into his cupped hand. Very tender the response to some lucky lady. TD |

Tis but a humble knight calling to the maiden whom hath shown me the light and what could be if she would accept one such as me. |

Oh! Such a heartfelt write in the language of olden days but from olden days cometh the present. May the door be opened unto you! I know it will be because there's something magical about people who come from Paradise. |

Your words of love and romance are most certainly fit for a fine maiden. I hope she enjoys your words of love. Take care........Sue I am in motion |
